MATTHIAS HAGEMANN
(*1967, Germany ) currently lives in Shanghai, China.
Graduated in Architecture, he is pinhole photographer since 1996. He displayed his works in numerous individual and collective shows in Germany, France, Spain, Poland, US, China and Australia, is editor of the annual Boxocam Camera Obscura Calendar since 2004. His experimental pinhole cams range from small size Coke Cans, Shoe-box-sized Tins, Fridges and Camerickshaw up to complete rooms. Further he creates fascinating In-Camera-collages with dated basic plastic cameras from the fifties. His work is mainly based on the topics of „slow“ and „time“.
For the actual exhibition, Matthias Hagemann presents „Giants dance“, a series about skyscrapers from Shanghai. Additionally the public is invited to have a first view on the work-in-progress of „Camerickshaw“, a giant tricycle pinhole camera build to make special large size pinholes of Shanghai cityscape.
For the „World Pinhole Day“ Matthias Hagemann offers a pinhole workshop on Saturday 28 April.
